Surreal Oil Painting from Balinese Artist, "Little Creator"

This wonderful surreal painting is the original work of A. A. Darmayuda in Bali. The artist works in oils on canvas to paint a small child inflating a large balloon that is covered with hundreds of tiny white cranes. "Childhood is a time when playing is the most commonplace and fun. This painting depicts a small child blowing a balloon. The inflated balloon exceeds its actual capacity. The balloon is a symbol of unlimited imagination. But in play and creativity sometimes there are many limitations and distractions. Hundreds of cranes are a manifestation of the distractions and limitations of creativity itself," says the artist.
